Here’s the High Desert Voices July 2026 newsletter for your reading pleasure. Lots of nice photos as well! This newsletter is published by and for volunteers at the High Desert Museum in Bend, Oregon. I’ve been working there as a volunteer since 2013.

Articles this month include one about my Kiger Mustang Experience. I previously posted a slightly longer version on my blog with way more photos. There’s another article about a talk entitled Deciphering the Early Universe, from Photons to Publications and a quiz about the P Ranch Long Barn on the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon. A calendar of upcoming events and exhibitions is on the last page.

Please enjoy the High Desert Voices July 2026 issue!
